Hedging its bets, the industry is exploring ammonia, batteries, and hydrogen, among other options for powering ships. Nuclear-powered ships can go years without refueling. A large merchant ship, capable of carrying thousands of containers, could be powered by two (or more) 30-megawatt reactors. Why nuclear-powered ships?

After a decade in the solar power installation business, Bradley Bartz is tired of being Mr. Nice Guy. I said I would consider it, but that I was really hoping to establish a precedent, legally speaking, beyond Torrance. If you don’t use their (SCE) power, you don’t need their poles! That’s pretty mean to the rest of the grid.
